It is hard to get in to TAMU pete unless your cgpa is above 3 and gre quantitative close to top. They dont give an attention to other stuff. Resume, sop are just waste of time

[Pete_Eng2016]

Why you say this ? Do you know cases got rejected ?

[JDeane]

@davincr Thanks for sharing and good luck!

[Pete_Eng2016]

Looks like more rejections are coming

[alligator]

True. Mine AIS is still the same. 

[alligator]

Have y'all heard anything from TAMU ? I saw couple of people reported their decisions on Grad Cafe. 

[Pete_Eng2016]

Rejection 

[alligator]

@Pete_Eng2016Sorry to hear about that. I got rejected from UT this morning. 

[JDeane]

@Pete_Eng2016 Sorry about that, keep your head up, there is opportunities out there!

[JDeane]

Congrats to all the acceptances at TAMU so far...

Did any of you hear anything about funding with your acceptance, or do you have any information about it?

I was admitted back in Feb., but am still waiting on dept. letter/funding. Even a scholarship would be great, as this reduces tuition to in-state.

[celal]

Hey guys. Is there any of you waiting for Texas A&M results? Since they announced most of them should i call them? Thx in advance.

[alligator]

I am still waiting from A&M. 

 

[JDeane]

Hey guys,

I spoke to TAMU over the phone, and she said that they let the applications float around the faculty before the actual departmental letter is sent out to each admitted student. At that time, they will give us a deadline to accept offer, and will offer any available funds in form of scholarships or assistantships.

To those still waiting, there could also be available seats based on people who do not confirm enrollment, so don't lose hope! Also, she said she is working to get letters sent out soon, she mentioned April 10th, but don't quote me on that.

Hope the information helps!
